Okay, I'll admit that I have had some rather stupid theories in the past, and I have had some good ones or some creative ones here and there, but this well "accepted" idea is so faulty its worse than when the forums were occupied with "Who's Tobi?" threads. The shadow figure we can see in the background is not Sakura, there is no way following logic that it is even possible. If you mean this, then you are denying evidence that is bluntly placed in front of your eyes or you are unable to properly read a manga. (Sorry for being so direct, but sometimes people won't listen unless they are told directly.) Now lets get to the actual point of this thread, shall we? Spoiler You must be registered for see images In the page above, we can see that Sakura, Obito and Sasuke appear to the right of Naruto, while Sasuke moves down from the cliff and towards Naruto, Sakura and Obito stay on the cliff to the right. This places Sakura to the left of Naruto at this time. Spoiler You must be registered for see images In this page we see the scene from the angle of Obito and Sakura (from the right of Naruto and behind Sasuke) we also see that they are standing on a ground that is on the same level or lower than Sasuke's who are infront of them. This is because this landscape is like a desert, and the way to draw a desert is seeing it like waves. (That is why it appears as being on the same level or under it.) If this was a cliff then it would stop right infornt of Obito and Sakura, though you can argue that the cliff got longer from the dimension change. (Even with that, it still cannot be Sakura.) Spoiler You must be registered for see images In this chapter we see the behind of Sasuke, no cliffs in the distance Sasuke moved, no Sakura no Obito. (As they are located to the left of Naruto and Sasuke and to the right of Kaguya. This is because Kaguya attacked the clone whom Obito and Sakura was located to the right of earlier, while Sasuke and Naruto was behind her.) Spoiler You must be registered for see images This page shows two things, one is that Sakura is hiding her face for some reason. This can be of two cases, she is either hiding herself from Kaguya's attack or she is hiding her face because she believes that her friends is about to die and she doesn't want to see that. She cannot be hiding from the attack, because as the last page proved, she is not even in Kaguya's aim. She is hiding her face so that she doesn't see Naruto and Sasuke die, which she believes will happen. Then we have the scene that shows Obito jumping from a cliff, this is the only evidence that they are still located on a cliff. Spoiler You must be registered for see images Here we see Kakashi and Obito running towards Naruto and Sasuke. Obito coming from Naruto's left and Kaguya's right while Kakashi is coming from Sasuke's right and Kaguya's left. This page also proves that statement further. Spoiler You must be registered for see images Spoiler You must be registered for see images Here we see the shadow figure, directly behind Obito who has not moved since he jumped infront of the bone arrow. Placing Sakura to Obito's left side, while we are seeing the shadow right behind him. This means that the shadow is behind him while Sakura is to his left. (Making it impossible for it to be Sakura unless she teleported for an instant out of no reason what so ever.) Then Who/What is it?​ I see it as 3 possible things, it can either be Minato or Tobirama who has teleported with the knowledge of Hagoromo or just a shadow in the rocks and not a person at all. But one thing is certain, it is not Sakura Haruno. (Logic goes against it, writing goes against it and evidence go against it.) This is not a theory, this is analyzing facts using logic and eyes.

Did not notice that

Did not notice that

It seems like a lot of people didn't "notice" the location of the characters.

 

[Tobi98]

Good catch but probably not

 

[Loki d]

I agree to satisfy your hunger

 

[Joon]

Spiral Zetsu perhaps. Also, someone pointed this out already. I didn't notice it either.

 

[Remion18]

Its just a darker colored line.

 

[Shinato]

Good catch but probably not

Probably not? Evidence go against it being Sakura. Logic goes against it being Sakura. Writing goes against it being Sakura. Its most likely just a shadow that happens to look like a man, probably just a crack or something like that in the cliff.

I agree to satisfy your hunger

Hunger? I could just ignore it, but going around spreading false information will have negative outcomes, which I'd rather avoid in the future if possible.

 

[Lana Del Taka]

I heard it was just a darker line.

 

[Aoihime]

I heard it was just a darker line.

A darker line in the shape of a person

 

[Shinato]

I heard it was just a darker line.

That is more likely than it being Sakura. As I said, I would either say that its a shadow/crack on the cliff or Tobirama/Minato. (The shadow/crack thing being most likely in my opinion.)

 

[Lana Del Taka]

A darker line in the shape of a person

In ***********, the thing is cut in half. I'm not sure what or who it is. That's just what i heard.

Well, that is even further evidence that its just the cliff.

Yup, but who know's...

 

[sn0wy]

after all this kishi better at least make up another character at this point

 

[Shinato]

There series is ending soon, its not a new character at least.

 

[Angelic.]

it looks too much like a person to be a line. ms erases theirs.
unless kishi logic to make sakura in the backround gasping

still havnt met hamura. if its a person ima be pissed that someone new shows up after obito dies and doesnt contribute with them all.

 

[rinchee]

Good observations.
At first I really thought it was a new mystery person, but now I think it's just really Sakura. Maybe from that perspective, since the cliff looks really far away, the shadow just looks like it's behind Obito.
But it'd be cool if it was one of the Hokages.

 

[minamoto 🥉]

if its not sakura then it must be tobidara!!

 

[Draxus]

It makes no sense for Kishi to secretly put in a hint that would ruin a huge reveal in the next chapter. I know a lot of people like to think Kishi is the Illuminati of manga and hides all these clues in his art work, but he really doesn't.
